And Think What Worrying Does:

Tolkien, Who Created This Marvellous Vehicle, Doesn't Go Anywhere In It. He Just Sits Where He Is. What I Mean By That Is That He Always Seems To Be Looking Backwards, To A Greater And More Golden Past; And What's More He Doesn't Allow Girls Or Women Any Important Part In The Story At All. Life Is Bigger And More Interesting Than The Lord Of The Rings Thinks It Is.

You'll Drift Apart, It's True, But You'll Be Out In The Open, Part Of Everything Alive Again.

The Intentions Of A Tool Are What It Does. A Hammer Intends To Strike, A Vise Intends To Hold Fast, A Lever Intends To Lift. They Are What It Is Made For. But Sometimes A Tool May Have Other Uses That You Don't Know. Sometimes In Doing What You Intend, You Also Do What The Knife Intends, Without Knowing.

I Have Stolen Ideas From Every Book I Have Ever Read.

The Crucifixion Saved Him [jesus]. He Never Had To Deal With The Fact That The Kingdom Of God Wasn't Ever Going To Come. His Disciples, Of Course, Had To Deal With It, And Little By Little They Had To Realize That It's A Metaphorical Thing. Well, That's Not What Jesus Meant. I'm Fairly Sure He Meant It Literally. But He Must Have Been The Most Fascinating Man.
